Summary

This was a Non-interventional Prospective Study. Centres enrolled adult patients with partial-onset seizures with or without secondary generalisation for whom the clinician had decided to initiate Eslicarbazepine Acetate (ESL) as an adjunctive therapy prior to the decision to take part in this study. Patients enrolled into the study were not sufficiently controlled with one drug licensed for the use as monotherapy in partial-onset seizures. Patients were seen at baseline and then during normal clinical visits at intervals. Patients in this study were assessed for efficacy and tolerability at baseline and then at least 3 and 6 months after the baseline.

Conditions

  • Partial Onset Seizures

Interventions

DRUG

Eslicarbazepine Acetate tablets

The Eslicarbazepine Acetate (ESL) Summary of Product Characteristics (SPC) recommended a starting dose of 400 mg once-daily (QD) which was increased to 800 mg QD after one or two weeks. Based on individual response, the dose was increased to 1200 mg QD. Treatment decisions were made by clinicians in agreement with the participant, and were independent of participation in the study.
